Ms Britta Bettendorf

Counseling Psychologist

A life-experienced and authentic counsellor in Berlin who cares, listens and respects you. I help adults and young people to find happiness in their lives again. Online counselling offered.

About Me

I am a counseling psychologist and licensed counsellor based in Bezirk Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf, Berlin. I offer counseling for anger, anxiety, relationships, self-esteem, and young adult issues. I help adults and young adults develop coping skills and clearer communication in relationships.

Approach

I work with a rare blend of empathy, clarity, and an attuned sense for what is left unsaid. Person-centered psychotherapy, for me, means honoring your uniqueness - without labels, without premature judgments. What sets me apart? Discretion, a sense of humor, and a presence that remains steady even when everything else shines. When you sit here, it’s not about status or achievement. It’s about you. Warm-hearted by nature, very clear and precise in my thinking – most people know precisely who they are dealing with. I also have a good sense of humour (at least I like to think so). And I don’t believe that counselling, psychotherapy or coaching should be a strange, distant or somehow unpleasant experience. On the contrary, the only way you will be able to understand yourself and solve your problems is through open, motivating and goal-oriented conversations between two people as equals. My foundation is person-centred counselling. In other words, I work in an empathic, authentic and encouraging way. I am not writing this here to score points. Yes, I have a degree in psychology and am learning all the time to be a skilled counsellor psychologist. But none of that makes me an expert for your life. Only you are! I am the one who helps you unravel your inside knot with a natural flowing conversation to help you achieve the change you wish to see. You will not find me to be judgmental. In fact, if you have chosen to trust me, I consider that a very special thing. I do not intend to harm this unique therapeutic relationship by being judgmental.
